Tyson Wirth, of The Daily Iowan, reports the Indianapolis Colts are expected to announce the signing of undrafted rookie free agent WR Ed Hinkel (Iowa) sometime Friday, June 9. Hinkel feels he is now recovered from a broken arm he suffered during the 2005 season. Hinkel says he feels no pain in the arm. The Colts agreed to sign him the same day he passed a physical, Tuesday, June 6. His three-year deal hinges on his ability to make the team, something that won't come easy.

Aaron Wilson, of the Carroll County Times, reports undrafted rookie free agent WR Ed Hinkel (Iowa), who had agreed in principle with the Baltimore Ravens, failed his physical and wasn't signed by the team.
